Denver Broncos ‘didn’t want to play games' in QB search with Bo Nix | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

couldnt agree more Mike. if he works out, no one in their right minds will question him going at 12

I believe Bo is the perfect QB for Denver. I am very happy he is ours

Bo Nix sold me when he decided to play in his last bowl game when so many prospective draftees held up. He is a mature, stand up guy. Character cannot be taught, and he has the resume Nd stats to back it up.

LFG, Bo 🔥

Everybody and their mother knew Payton wanted Nix. He fit his style perfectly

They just drafted one of his college receivers, too. Instant chemistry

He has played a lot of football. He is the same age as Zach Wilson. He can scramble and run much better than people realise. If he can digest and operate Payton’s offense, the broncos’ 9 year qb nightmare is finally over.

people who talk about floors and ceilings I think are ridiculous. Who would look at Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Drew Brees and say to themselves that their ceilings were as high as justin fields? you dont need to be a freak athlete to be elite, it sure is nice but you need to get the ball into the right guys hands and any of these guys being drafted have the ceiling to do that at a high level. If anything id say being a freak athlete just raises your floor because when all goes wrong they have that to fall back on which is the opposite of how most people look at it.

Sean Payton and Bo Nix is a great fit. Bo Nix will be the best rookie QB of the bunch.

Hopefully Denver now has a starting QB. I agree with the co-hosts. We wish Russ Wilson the very best. He just wasn’t a fit with HC Payton

unrelated: Garner Minschew has to be stoked that no rookie is immediately threatening his job this season

Bo Nix just looks like Drew Brees in uniform. My concern with him is that he played against terrible defenses and I don't know if he has the arm strength for the deep ball that Brees had. But I think Payton really had to make this pick also. It's an interesting roll of the dice.

Great take!

Spot on with the Lamar Jackson draft day comparison. Trading back and missing would have been dumb. Hindsight is always 20/20 but smart people learn from their mistakes. Even if Bo ends up not working out it was the right move to take him knowing how strongly they felt about him.

simms is still sleeping

We have had a top tier draft. I’m in shock. Oh, and we have $104 MILLION to spend next year!! Idk about playoffs next year, but this team will be a contender sooner than later. Make sure to lock down PS2. They have a much improved DL and a top ten OL. They just need to add more DL/Pass Rush, a number 2 CB (PS2/Mcmillain are elite), and a TE. We had no cap space and somehow improved our team. Adding Franklin and Reynolds is great for the WR room and having Tim back helps. Very happy rn.

Bo will be the best qb of this draft class

Poor kid!!

There's going to be a lot of heart breaking QB bust from this draft.

I'll be very surprise if he doesn't start
